Mykell LaRocque Messman

I was with another firm for over two years. They drained my bank account, my hope, and I felt like a pawn in my own custody battle. I sought Mykell out after a terrible experience where I felt my attorney at the time didn’t know how to represent my case. I had an initial meeting, we talked about what... was important to me and once accepted Mykell literally heard everything I said, as a single mom, and went from there. We didn’t have a bunch of consultations that she billed me obscene amounts, we had two. She went to court and she FOUGHT for my babies and for me. She fought for everyone’s best interests, she was amazing. She told me from the beginning we’re not doing this whole “petty” thing which I 100% respect because my previous lawyer told me to call them about everything, and they billed me accordingly. She said call me when you NEED me and gave me her personal cell. After two and a half years for the first time I felt HEARD with her without repeating myself twenty times. I felt SAFE with her and I knew she was looking out for EVERYONE. She was everything I needed from the beginning and more. If you don’t go to Mykell you’re doing a disservice to yourself and your sanity. For the first time in two and a half years I feel like I can breathe again. Retain her. The juice is worth the squeeze I promise you.

After 31 years in a marriage to the love of my life, I found myself on the door step of Messman Law seeking counsel, guidance and direction on how to proceed with a legal separation and ultimate divorce that my spouse desired. The Messman Law Firm (referred to by a co-worker) provided the initial cou...nsel to provide expectations going forward, and I hired them on the spot primarily. Ms. Mykell Messman not only made me feel comfortable with the road ahead, but I realized that I was in good hands. Ms. Messman is so patient and thoughtful I often felt like I was her only client. After hiring this firm to work my legal separation, it did not take long decided that after the State’s mandatory statute wait time; I hired them to take on the work to complete my divorce. Mykell is exceptional, and her team is highly proficient and extremely meticulous. The Law Firm provided responsive, courteous service during in person visits, phone calls, emails, and yes even text messages of my inquiry about the status of the process along the way. Mykell provided superb one-on-one counsel and guidance which ultimately made my unfortunate divorce process an experience that was an absolutely smooth and simple. Thank you Mykell and the Messman Law Firm Team for all of the help and assistance you provided during one of the most difficult and obscurest times of my life.

I was recommended Mykell from a family member who went through divorce as well. She is honest and up front you with you about expectation and what you should expect. When she says she will defend you as she would defend her own family she means it and stands behind it. I personally have recommended... her to several people I work with. She is a fantastic lawyer you definitely get what you pay for. The money I have spent has saved me at least 10 fold. Flat out I trust Mykell with what ever she says. I plan on keeping her on retainer long after my everything is done. She has earned a life long client. As far as what Mykell has done for me was a divorce with property and children involved I have 50/50 and don't pay my ex wife anything.

Mrs. Messman is a horrible lawyer and a joke. It cost me over 7000 and over a year to complete an order that she stated would take a few months. I was lied too continuously and would never receive updates or call backs. The only time I was contacted was when she needed more money. I had to find out a...bout the status of my own order myself and she lied to me about how long it was approved. It was approved for a month before it was disclosed to me.
